Based in Osteopathic medicine, Visceral Manipulation is a gentle manual therapy that assesses the structural relationships between the viscera (organs), and their fascial or ligamentous attachments to the various internal surroundings. Highly focused techniques are used to assist functional and structural imbalances throughout the body. This may include musculoskeletal, vascular, nervous, urogenital, respiratory, digestive, eliminatory, neuroendocrine and lymphatic dysfunction.
